Replacements for Firefox and Thunderbird?

[R C]

well, true,  rules are rules, like for example to not top post etc..  :)

BUT,  it is a little disturbing that there are numerous people out there 
that have to say their say about how to post and what to post. It's not 
that the discussion was about how to bake a cake or grow tomatoes.  OP 
asked about part of ubuntu distros, asking for alternatives. I think 
that is  "on topic" enough.

And of course..  there is always the choice between  read/not-read, and 
just delete an email, unread/unopened, from a thread that comes in that 
you're not interested in. It's not like the 80's where your internet 
traffic was metered by the kb.
